The instructions aren't clear, but barely sufficient to get it the machine assembled. Unfortunately, the upper guide housing is poorly secured, which will no doubt weaken with use. When the saw is turned on, the table vibrates and shakes, making precise feed to the blade disconcerting. The fence is poorly engineered and constructed, specifically the flimsy bracket that grips the outfeed side of the table. I realize the 90-040 is an economical solution for those wanting an entry level stationary band saw, however, I believe the substandard construction will only frustrate the user and worsen over time. Review: TERRIBLE - Difficult to put together. It vibrates I can't figure out how to change speeds Directions are TERRIBLE. If I could send it back I would. Horrible ## Features - ACCURACY & PRECISION - Precision easy adjust European style upper & lower ball bearing blade guides, provide blade stability for improved cut accuracy. - EFFICIENT CUTTING - 2/3 HP induction motor easily handles various bandsaw cutting needs - MULTIPLE CUTTING SPEEDS - Two cutting speeds, for excellent results in either hard or soft woods. - UNIQUE DESIGN - Tilting table allows table to be tilted out to 45 degrees, right, or any angle between 0-45 degrees. One-piece welded frame design reduces bandsaw vibration. - PRODUCT SPECS - Wheel size: 12", Wheel speeds (2): 445 & 970 rpm, Blade speeds (2): 1444 & 3150 lin.
